To all whom, it may conc/:7%:

Be it known that I, WiLLis E. Hors, a citizen of the lfnited States,residing ati-Richmond I-iill, New York, in the county of New York andState of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements inRadiators; and l do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exactdescription of the invention. such as will enable others skilled in theart to which it appertains to make and use the same.

My invention relates to improvements-in radiators of that class made ofcorrugated metal and adapted to be secured upon the walls of rooms orother places to be heated.

The object of the invention is to provide a steam or hot-water radiatorof this character which will be simple, durable, and efiicient inconstruction and which may be manufactured at comparatively small cost.

Vith the above and other objects in view the invention consists ofcertain novel features of construction, combination, and arrangement ofparts,.as will be hereinafter describedand claimed.

In the accompanying'drawings, Figure l is a front elevation 'of myimproved radiator. Fig. 2 is a horizontal se tional view through thesame, taken on the p ane indicated by the Fig. 3 is a vertical sectionalview taken on the plane indicated by the line i5 3 in Fig, 1, and Fig. 4is a detail vertical longitudinal sectional view through one end of theradiator.

The embodiment of my invention shown in the accompanying drawings is inthe form of a steam-radiator designed to be attached to the wall of aroom, so as to take up but little space. This radiator comprises frontand rear sheets l and of corrugated iron or other metal, which havetheir side edges seamed together, as shown at 3, and'their, top andbottom ends or edges connected by casting upon them a top 4 and a'bottom5. The corrugations of the front and rear sheets l 2 inay be of any formand arrangement; but I preferably make them substantially V-shaped, sothat they it into each other, as clearly shown in Fi 2 of the drawings.The two sheets may e spaced apart, so as to leave a steamspace betweenthem, by any suitable means but I preferably place one or more pieces otsoft wire or the like (l between thi m before they are riveted together,as shown at 7. rl`he double seiimh at the vertical or sido edges of thesheets l 2 may also be oll anv form that will provide a water and steamtighty connection, Alter the sheets 1 :Uni2 have been riveted togetherand seamed along their sides their ends are placed in molds in which thetop 4 and bottom 5 are cast. rlhis top 4 and bottom 5 close thestcain-spacc between the sheets l 2, and a circulation through saidspace is efl'ected by tapping the bottom 5 adjacent to its ends, asshown at 8 t), to receive thc supply and return pipes l() and l1. I

Any suitable ornamental work i2 may be secured upon the top 4 o r otherportions ol' the radiator, and the latter may be secured to a wall bybrackets 13 or in any other suitable manner.

The construction and advantages ot the invention will be readilyunderstood from the foregoing dscription, taken, in connection with theaccompanying drawings. lt will be seen that by making the front and rearol the radiator of corrugated sheet i'netal, seaming their side edges,and casting the top and bottoni on the same, as shown and described, avery light and at the same time durable radi ator is provided which maybe manufactured at comparatively small cost.

Various changes in the form, proportion, and the minor details ofconstruction may be resorted to without departii'ig from the principleor sacrilicing any of the advantages ol' this invention. l

`Having t-hus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire tosecure by lietters Patent, is-

The herein-described radiator comprising a top, a bottom, front and rearsheets having their upper and lower edges secured respectively to thetop and bottom, their vertical end edges secured together, and theirintermediate portions vertically corrugated, the front sheet having itscorrugations extending into those of the rear sheet, and its endportions bent to form, together with the end A)ortions of the rearsheet, vertical flow an return chambers, rivets connecting thecorrugated portions of th'e sheets together, and
